IF Euro 2020 wasn't exciting enough, there's plenty more football at the Tokyo Olympics.
But Team GB are out of the women's competition after losing their quarter-final with Australia.

What are the Olympic football groups?
The men's competition consists of sixteen teams split up four by four per group and the women's competition will consist of 12 teams split up in three groups.
Men's groups
- Group A: Japan, South Africa, Mexico, France
- Group B: New Zealand, South Korea, Honduras, Romania
- Group C: Egypt, Spain, Argentina, Australia
- Group D: Brazil, Germany, Ivory Coast, Saudi Arabia
Women's groups
- Group E: Japan, Great Britain, Chile, Canada
- Group F: Brazil, Netherlands, China, Zambia
- Group G: USA, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand
The GB Women's team qualified for the Olympics by virtue of England's performance at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, when they finished fourth in France.
Defending champions Germany will not field a women's side at the Olympics after they lost their World Cup quarter-final to Sweden.
And unlike the men's event – which is an under-23 tournament – the Olympics is one of women's football's biggest events, with no age restrictions.
